Joe Biden is hemorrhaging Latino votes to a surging Trump campaign in Florida, and his panicked "news" media allies are pulling out all the stops to help him.
Faced with almost non-existent crowds for Biden appearances, CBS News' Norah O'Donnell lied to her "Evening News" viewers by using a photo from a Latinos for Trump in event in Phoenix and tagged it as Biden’s Latino event in Florida.
Emblazoned on CBS’s chyron: “Biden pitches crucial Latino voters during Florida campaign stop” — with a photo from Trump’s Phoenix rally...
Seriously? A Latina in the photo was literally wearing a hat that said “I Love Trump”!
The actual room where Biden had his "Latino Outreach Event" in Kissimmee, FL yesterday?
Here was what it really looked like:

when this got posted earlier, a couple freepers said the story was incorrect.

“The article is misleading. I sent a similar one to CBS for confirmation, and they told me to look at this YouTube video of the report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxMrgxAf5Vc&feature=youtu.be .
I don’t think CBS distorted anything or intentionally left a false impression.”
“While showing that picture the voice over was “The President has cut into Biden’s advantage by wooing conservative Latinos with ominous warnings about a Biden presidency” (3:45 into the video).
CBS lies about enough stuff that we don’t have to cry wolf. Gateway Pundit, cut it out.”
This was debunked on another thread. Apparently the voiceover was talking about Trump when this played. I would think the “I <3 Trump” hat would be a clue this wasn’t a Biden event
I don’t care what the audio said. If the caption says “Biden event” on top of an image of a Trump event, then it’s misleading. What if this where in a lobby somewhere with the sound muted? (Not an airport — it’s not CNN and their own brand of lies) See B.S. doesn’t get to weasel out of this. Nope.
Though the fact that it wasn’t an image of a frail, demented, decrepit, old has-been in messy Depends in a basement, surrounded by a crowd of five, three of whom are reporters, should have been a clue. :)
I agree!
Gateway Pundit for those times when you think the right needs a Politico on its side. LOL
George Orwell would be proud.
Lying-News-Media BUMP
We again prove what a bunch of out right bald faced liars the left wing main stream media is.
The democrats are the pathetic and persistent party of bald faced liars.
"President Trump has cut into Biden's [Latino] advantage by wooing conservative Latinos."CBS most certainly DID NOT use that photo to claim that Biden has lots of Latino support. They used the photo to illustrate the strong support President Trump has from Latinos and President Trump is winning them over.
Everybody needs to be careful with "24News" and "Gateway Pundit." They have a record of such distorted reporting.
The lady with the pink phone and I {heart} Trump hat, next to the lady with the red MAGA hat, were probably giveaways that this wasn’t a Biden rally.
Page down to the video of him waving to an empty field.
Sort of reminds me of AOC crying to an invisible audience when she made her trip to the wall in southern Texas.
What is even more unbelievable is that the media covers for them and their antics.
Well, I overcomplicated things.
Raᵗʰer than going to ᵗʰe effort of photoshopping ᵗʰe crowd, ᵗʰey just substituted the crowd for Trump and said it was for Biden.
Most excellent point. I agree completely.
It is easy to spot a Biden rally.
Fires, looting, beatings, cops running away, mayors hiding in their basements, media smiling and more.
“Mistakes were made”
“What difference does it make”
More information warfare from the democrat media.
